Qualifications for Participation
To qualify for the third Republican debate, candidates must meet specific criteria. They need to achieve at least 4 percent support in two national polls or 4 percent in one national poll and 4 percent in polls from two different early-primary states. Additionally, candidates must secure a minimum of 70,000 donors. The deadline for meeting these qualifications is November 6.
Candidates Qualified So Far
As of now, four candidates have met the requirements to participate in the third Republican debate:
- Former President Donald Trump.
- Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
- Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
- Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley.
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and former Vice President Mike Pence have achieved the polling requirements but still need to garner 70,000 donors. Meanwhile, Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) has met the donor threshold but must attain 4 percent support in one national poll.
Former President Trump, the leading contender in national polls, did not participate in the last two debates. His campaign has called for the cancellation of future primary debates, advocating for a focus on opposing President Joe Biden instead.
The upcoming third debate will be a significant event in the ongoing Republican primary, as candidates aim to gain voter support and present their positions on critical issues.
